QUOTE(leecy85 @ Jan 24 2009, 01:34 PM) Ya..I guess so as the rental there might be cheaper. Not only housing rentals, transportation across the bridge is also freakin expensive if you need to do frequent travelling.Please correct me if i m wrong.   If you're paid the same in Kulim as in Penang, you'll enjoy life much better. |

QUOTE(navilink @ Jan 25 2009, 09:24 AM) man my cousin also work in intel penang... so now they transfer to kulim? means more competition? Imagine cramming the workforce of 2 shutdown plants into a new facility. Of course you're going to see more competition and discrimination among the blue and green tag staffs. |

QUOTE(soontheam @ Feb 12 2009, 10:08 PM) Look from it from the Return of Invesment point of view, propping up PG6 and PG7 isn't going to solve anything in the long term, those two facilities will have to shut down one day due to cost issues. However, if you spend the money upgrading fabs and move to new technology, you remain the market leader and sell more, earn more, i.e. the company survives. Intel is a US based company of origin. What makes you think that they should maintain the workforce in Malaysia when they are here just to take advantage of low cost setup? At this point of time when we are in an economic crisis, it better to take care of their own US citizens by giving their own people the job advantage. |
